Gratitude

I love November because it’s the month of gratitude and thanksgiving! I usually enjoy a good movie with a good story and the month of November reminds me of that. We have an entire month focused on being grateful and thankful. How wonderful!

This month has been enlightening for me. My Dad passed away earlier this month and left me with his wonderful light! He’s a man who always saw the light in any situation. Throughout my life he’d tell me, “You catch more bees with honey than vinegar, Pam.” I can see now that he was so right! I am so grateful for my Dad’s wonderful light in my life. I’ll carry that light with me always!

This month also brought me encouragement from my family and my friends all over the world. Their light has brought me joy too!

Finally, I have also found great joy in nature! Every day I am thrilled to spend time with the sun, moon and trees. I love standing in the sunshine, walking through Garfield Park, feeling the bark on my favorite tree, and gazing at the beautiful moon.
